I’d rather be called a homosexual than a queer. Not just because the word "homosexual" defines my sexual orientation. Not just because the word "queer" is vague. Not just because the word "queer" has been - and still is - used as an anti-gay slur. "Queer" also has radical, activist, neoliberal connotations, which I do not appreciate.

      The important thing is that she's not straight, even if she's in a straight presenting relationship and has never shown interest in the other sex and never intends to.
